“A prominent Massachusetts anesthesiologist allegedly fabricated 21 medical studies that claimed to show benefits from painkillers like Vioxx and Celebrex, according to the hospital where he worked.<\/p>\n
“Baystate Medical Center, Springfield, Mass., said that its former chief of acute pain, Scott S. Reuben, had faked data used in the studies, which were published in several anesthesiology journals between 1996 and 2008. …<\/p>\n
“Dr. Reuben’s research work also claimed positive findings for Wyeth’s antidepressant Effexor XR as a pain killer.”<\/p>\n
From The Wall Street Journal [Editorial Comments: Another example of medical fraud. While no conclusions can be drawn directly about antidepressants such as Effexor from this information, it certainly raises more doubts about drug safety.<\/p>\n On August 22, 2003 Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, the makers of SSRI antidepressant Effexor, issued a warning to U.S. doctors that Effexor could cause hostility, suicidal ideation and self-harm in patients under the age of 18. In September, 2003 Wyeth sent a similar alert to Canadian doctors telling them Effexor had been linked with a possible increase in suicidal thinking in children. In November, 2005 the FDA\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program reported \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c5\u201chomicidal ideation\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00c2\u009d as an adverse event of Effexor ER extended release.<\/p>\n 41 persons of the 393 in Sweden who committed suicide in 2007 and were reported to the National Board of Health and Welfare of Sweden got treatment with Effexor. On April 10, 2001 in Wahluke, Washington, 16-year-old Cory Baadsgaard took a rifle to his high school, and held 23 classmates and a teacher hostage while on a high dose of the antidepressant Effexor. On March 22, 2001 in El Cajon, California, 18-year-old Jason Hoffman was on two antidepressants, Effexor and Celexa, when he opened fire at his California high school wounding five.<\/p>\n Recognize that the real problem is that psychiatrists fraudulently diagnose life’s problems as an “illness”, and stigmatize unwanted behavior or study problems as\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a0“diseases.” Psychiatry’s stigmatizing labels, programs and treatments are harmful junk science; their diagnoses of “mental disorders” are a hoax – unscientific, fraudulent and harmful. All psychiatric treatments, not just psychiatric drugs, are dangerous, and can cause crime.<\/p>\n It is vital that you and your friends and associates watch the video documentary “Making A Killing – The Untold Story of Psychotropic Drugging”. Containing more than 175 interviews with lawyers, mental health experts, the families of psychiatric abuse victims and the survivors themselves, this riveting documentary rips the mask off psychotropic drugging and exposes a brutal but well-entrenched money-making machine. The facts are hard to believe, but fatal to ignore.
